My iPad2 16gb battery has been draining faster each day, I got one of the very 1st shipments in March and for the 1st two weeks it was unbelievable how long it lasted, now just messing with it for about 25 min. and its already at 90% n drops pretty quick. I have my brightness really low and on auto, I always close my apps from the multi-tasking-ish bar. It's a WiFi model, and I even have push notifications off and mail only when I request it. I can't figure out anything else to do, n I have been searching here a lot

Hey drain it to under 20% the lower the better. Turn it off. Charge it full, and should be good to go! This should help immediately and in the future try to wait to under 20% before you plug it in. Good luck!

Serianni's advice was OK for one time, or once a month, but LiIon batteries don't last as long if you routinely take them down that far. Do it once, to recalibrate the battery meter, then repeat once a month. Otherwise, keep it topped off as mucha as you can, it'll last longer.
